replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie That’s what I have told people. Pictures don’t do justice to the Grand Canyon. You need to go see it. #pttravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A1. I only recently discovered “overlanding” was a specific type of travel. It would probably have to be some of the camping trips we undertook in Australia. Jarvis Bay and the like. #PTTravel

replying to @RooLovesTravel @RooLovesTravel I would also love to do a proper one and it seems daunting #PTTravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A2. Again, probably Australia. We ended up doing Canberra to Brisbane in a oner because the caravan we’d booked was infested with spiders. #PTTravel

replying to @findinganeish @findinganeish Was that when you were younger? Yes, I think it might get more popular. I wonder if it's more environmentally friendly and if pros outweigh cons. #PTTravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie How long!? LOL! Forever and a day. I can only remember Biloxi Mississippi, The Grand Canyon, Houston Texas, Los Angeles California, many motel rooms and the back seat of a 1961 Buick, jus'sayin' ;-) #pttravel

Q4 What we're the pros and cons of going on transport over land rather than flights or ships?

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A3. I’m not the most rugged traveller so I have to cast my mind pretty far back. Even this was only a few miles outside ACT. #PTTravel

A1 #PTTravel One big con is you are limited to where you can go. A big pro of driving is you can go at your own pace & maybe find something you weren’t expecting. Australia was a driving trip.

A4 The road trips we take in Europe give us more flexibility to go to places that may be less accessible by public transport. Cons - can’t drink and drive! I was on the metro after this one! #PTTravel

A3 Overland trips in Europe
Italy - I took trains from Venice to Trento then to Verona, Bologna and Florence.
I also got train to London then Eurostar to Paris then went to Bayeux and back.
Small but very fun and saw a lot

Pros: Can be cheaper, lots to look out of the windows at, no airport security, can get you into the city centre.
Cons: Plane is quicker.

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A4. I guess you’re giving up comfort and convenience (not that planes are particularly comfortable) in favour of something more mindful and rewarding. For me, overlanding is even off-road. Hiking, horse-riding or cross-country. #PTTravel

replying to @findinganeish @kate_frankie A4. I do enjoy slow, active travel, especially if it involves annoying golfers, but actually getting places is nice, too. #PTTravel

A5 #PTTravel I’d like to continue driving trips in the US to see the 12 states I still haven’t been to. I’d like to see more of Canada that way too. Monument Valley was part of a larger driving trip.

replying to @findinganeish @findinganeish Hiking is ultimate overlanding. I admire our wonderful @RTWBarefoot for his epic hiking trips. I'd love to do one or add in bits of hiking in future #PTTravel
